In your journals, write ONE paragraph examining one of rhetorical devices Staples uses in order to convey his message.
Tuesday Wednesday
Read the following paragraph. Determine whether or not it is an effective beginning to a paper that is on track for earning a 7-9. Support your response with specific details from the sample.
Imagine yourself in a setting with 10-15 other individuals of any age range. You pose the question “who is the most influential person in your life?”. The typical answer will be “my mother/father”. This answer is so common because parents are leaders, advisors, and teachers; they aim to provide their children with the tools they need to be successful. Scott Russell Sanders answers this typical question, but shows how his interest, paralleled with his father’s passion. Through his use of symbolism, vivid imagery, and unique syntactical structures, his audience is enthralled in the meaning of the father-son dynamic.
